Hello,
In a 09 1500 Laramie my lower dash quit working last Friday. So everything that controls the heat, heated seats/steering wheel, ESP. And a the same time the BAS/ESP light came on the instrument panel as well as the anti skid light and air bag light. And then on Saturday morning the truck dead. Battery was at 8v. So I jumped and it got it started. Alternator was putting out 14.6. It charged the battery and it has held 12V since.
A friend of mine was a Ford mechanic, so he has the snap on computer. We hooked it. and while we were looking around, the problem went away. Don't know why or how, but it went away.
Well it is back this morning. Initially I was chasing the problem of the idiot lights on the dash. But now I am wondering if those are on because the lower dash isn't functioning.
I am lost at this point and need any help that I can get.
Thank you in advance.
